You don’t get what you pay for
Many many hosts offer immense amounts of bandwidth and disk space these days. Some even offer unlimited bandwidth and space. Unfortunately this is simply an advertising tactic, because you can never really use all of your assigned space/bandwidth.
What’s happening is the focus of shared hosting is changing. Bandwidth is cheaper than ever, hard drives cost almost nothing. These days, real usage is measured on power. Raw processing power needed for a certain site. Customers are now being issued to servers, and measured on servers by their resource usage.
However, it’s unfortunate that most current hosts hide this fact under a large and confusing Terms of Service agreement where they state and impose various, confusing resource limiters. The simple fact is: any site that will actually use all the bandwidth and space they offer should be running on it’s own server. But of course, these hosts still want their money and customers, so they happily take them on, and simply suspend them for breaking one of the various TOS statements.
When choosing a web host, make sure you read the Terms of Serivce in full.

MediaLayer: exceptional
Given Rating: 




MediaLayer really has been exceptional. They have a great infrastructure with litespeed(an amazing value!) and fast bandwidth providers. Support is always fast and knowledgeable. I couldn’t ask for more. However, you will be paying for such great service.
Steadfast: highly impressed
Given Rating: 




I’ve had an extremely positive experience with Steadfast Networks since I signed up in November. I had one period of outage that lasted 10 minutes that I am aware of, and the site has been completely stable otherwise. When I had technical questions, they answered my telephone call and provided assistance within 5 minutes. I’m highly impressed with their customer service and with how well the site runs while I’m paying less than $4/month.
